What’s it really like to be a stay-at-home dad in America?

In this raw and honest episode, Jesse sits down with longtime friend and future fellow podcaster Dave Lipay (The Off Tangent Podcast, Coming Soon) for a conversation about ALL THINGS parenting, and being a Stay-at-Home Dad.

From wrestling with ego and identity, to finding meaning in the daily chaos, they unpack the decision to stay home, the emotional weight that comes with it, and why it might just be the most important (and underappreciated) job there is.

Together, they explore:

- Breaking gender stereotypes around parenting

- How to find purpose when there’s no paycheck or praise

- The emotional toll of burnout, overstimulation, and isolation

- Why teamwork with your partner is everything

- The long-term beauty and legacy of being present

Whether you’re a stay-at-home dad or mom, a working parent, or just trying to figure out what matters most in parenthood, this episode is for you.

Many veterans today are suffering—and isolation is a key cause.

Without the shared mission and tribe of active duty life, mental and emotional wounds can deepen in silence.

Could nature, skill, and community be the antidote?

Retired Lt. Col. John “Saint” Langford thinks so.

As CEO of Project Healing Waters, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving disabled veterans, Langford now leads one of the most unique healing organizations in America. Through the therapeutic art of fly fishing—and the power of nature and community—his team helped over 7,000 veterans in 2024 rediscover strength and post-traumatic healing.

In this episode, we discuss:

- Why fly fishing offers a potent combination of focus, challenge, and community for trauma recovery

- How nature and structured discomfort can rewire the brain and support long-term mental health

- The science behind community as medicine—and how loneliness is killing more Americans than heart disease

- The idea of “tribe” and how veterans can find it again outside of uniform

- What civilians can learn from this model—and why we’re all wired for meaning, purpose, and shared mission

Whether you’re a veteran, a family member, or simply someone feeling lost in today’s world, this episode offers hope—and a reminder: sometimes healing starts waist-deep in a river, fly rod in hand, with someone beside you who gets it.

We don’t like to talk about death—but what if your fear of death is shaping how you live, and driving your anxiety?

In this solo episode, Jesse shares how his personal experiences with death—and how a therapist’s simple question unlocked a deep truth: our fear of death may be the hidden source of our anxiety, ambition, and need for control.

Drawing from global traditions, we explore what Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, and modern secular thinkers believe about death and the afterlife. From Ecclesiastes to Michael Singer, Alan Watts to David Gibson, this episode offers a guided reflection on how our beliefs about death shape how we live.

Modern parenting is exhausting—and the answer isn’t doing more.

What if being a "Good Enough" parent is more than enough for your kids?

On this week's episode, we talk about the quiet exhaustion of modern parenting, why perfectionism is stealing our joy (and presence), and how social media has warped our sense of what it means to be a “good parent.”

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, guilty, or like you're missing the moments that matter—this one’s for you.
